This week, I have sent the whole class home with a suggested timetable, that I have filled in, with a blank timetable on the back. I want to encourage the class to manage their time effectively, and avoid last minute ‘cramming’ . They can either choose to follow the suggested one or create their own timetable, that works best for them. Below I have attached both the suggested and blank templates, should they wish to reference them in weeks to follow.
